Rage is Jawdropping.

I havent been in awe of a games graphics since crisis. Seeing it in motion on an xbox of all things was just amazing I can't even imagine how good it will look on a gamming pc.

It proves to me that all these graphics threads are just dumb "360 cant run it" "ps3 cant run it"

There is no way an xbox should be able to run a game that looks that good at 60 fps by this logic. if you havent seen the game in motion go youtube it.

You seem to have very little faith in ID. I like to look at their track record. This isnt a killzone 2 cg trailer.

They took alot of shortcuts to get the game running at 60fps, Prebaked shadows textures dont look that good. And they love to doctor up pictures and videos too. 04dcarraher

Sure, it looks good but for me at least, I need to play a shooter. Watching and saying "Hey, that looks good" or "Hey that looks fun!" doesn't always mean it is.

That being said, Rage does look quiet promising.

Waaaah, waaaah, prebake shadows.... waaaah, waaah.

The game still looks great, who cares. John Carmack is a legend in the business and he knows what he's doing.

Did Killzone 2 not live up to and in some ways improve on early CGI?

On topic. I haven't been following Rage ...

the games does not look that good , it may look good on a console but using prebaked shadows and other shortcuts is a downgrade in graphics when Doom 3 from 2004 had it dynamic shadows or even Quake Wars.

well of course, all console games have to. But it seems to take ALOT less shortcuts than other 60fps games like say MW2. And looks better to boot

Doesnt look THAT amazing, only its textures and models, but it is good, just reminds me of borderlands though, and I hate steampunk >=(Birdy09

[QUOTE="Tessellation"][QUOTE="04dcarraher"]then with videos some like using PC's and pass them as console versions and some use pre rendered videos. 04dcarraher

He said some so that actually contradicts your statement. And yeah alot of companies put 16xaf and 16xAA in their video's, pictures

It looks very nice in certain ways, such as the overall texture quality and detail in the levels and the dynamic and reactive animations, but it's actually a bit of a step back in other ways.

They've removed the stunning realtime dynamic lighting shadows that were so nice in Doom being cast of everything in the game.The sky looks like it might be a static image, although I'm not 100% sure of this.

So it appears all that detail has come at the expense of some other visual elements that I personally really liked.
